I'm not too upset that the busy days are back, it keeps me occupied and I don't feel like I'm just wasting my life away doing nothing. Not feeling to well these last two days, got a cold and just trying to get well soon, so that I'll be fresh for paintball on Tuesday. Yee, can't wait!
Goooood news, my mum has decided that she will pay for may airfare to Europe this June, which means I get to go home and experience summer in Norway for the first time in 3 years!! I'm super stoked, and just think that she is the best mum ever and that my brother really is a manipulating bastard. It's sad to feel that way about someone that you look up to and that is your family. I'm not sure if I'll ever get over it, hopefully he will wake up one day and realise that he is wrong to act like a neonazi. My stepdad is applying for Norwegian citicenship now, all the best to him. What is also cool about the trip is that Elisabeth is flying home at the same time, so I will have company almost all the way! It'll be awesome. Now we're planning to stop over a day or two in a city somewhere, maybe Germany or Austria. I have to fly to Europe first anyway so may as well stop over somewhere cool. Italy would be cool as well.. Hmm. I'm longing for Europe, so won't spend my life away from it, I'm afraid. When I finish my education here I want to go either directly to Europe, or just work here for 1 year and then go. I can't see myself settling down in New Zealand, which is funny. For the first time I really feel a sense of belonging, which is awesome, that was the reason why I wanted to study overseas; to try and find out where I belong in the world. And now I know it a bit better, I belong in Europe. Next thing to figure out now is which country.. ;) Think I gotta go to Germany and get a guy.
So, my Easter break is looking rather snug and uneventful. Maybe I'll be getting computer training at work so that I can to day shifts when they need staff, switching to days would be to my liking, as night shifts actually are starting to get me down. It takes up so much extra time, and the pay is actually rather shit, when you think of how much time that is wasted. I've got about 5 hours to myself pr. day when I'm working nights, just because I have to sleep and all. Too much hassle in the long run. So it's official... I'm sick of my job, once again. I guess I'll have to find something that is challenging the mind, when I grow up. Otherwise I won't last long in any profession. Much to think about these days.
I'm loooving German though. Having so much fun with it, reading books and all these days to give my vocabulary a boost. Going to conversation classes with a German intern that is here to ... be an intern? I don't know what these hunks are doing, just hanging around in class, having a sexy accent and being nice to people. A bit sorry that I couldn't find a suitable chinese course, but I'm not dead yet, so there is still time. I don't wanna pay heaps of money for a crash test course that teaches you to say Hello I'm Tina, where is the toilet.. I want MORE.
Ah well, I'm gonna withdraw now to my awesome bed. I got a new mattress in exchange for a sixpack of beer, and it is soooo comfortable. I really have a great bed now. :) Good things are happening. May they keep happening. :)
Peace out.

Could someone please let me out of my head?
A fair question, I'd say... I'm living most of my life in my head at the moment, and rather unvoluntary. Hopefully tomorrow will be a nice exercise to get out of it, we're having a nice st. Patricks day party here in the flat before going out and getting some Irish action on Courtenay and Cuba. Wheee! Can't wait! But first I have to survive work tonight, and sleep a couple of hours, complete my German assignment, pick up my heater and make dinner for Eli. Busy day ahead! Busy days are great, feel like my life is just wasting away in front of the computer and in my head. We had a sendoff for Valerie at Flying Burrito Bros on Wednesday, I must say this place is absolutely awesome! the food was totally amazing. New favourite restaurant.
